In the project list of the <code class="filename">Berkeley_DB.sln </code>
solution, build the "db_stl" project and "db_stl_static" project to build STL API
as a dynamic or static library respectively. And in your application, you should link this 
library file as well as the Berkeley DB library file to your application. The STL API library file is by default always put at the
same location as the Berkeley DB library file. 
</p>
      <p>
And you need to include the STL API header files in your application code.
If you are using the Berkeley DB source tree, the header files are in &lt;Berkeley DB Source Root &gt;/stl directory; 
If you
are using the pre-built installed version, these header files are in &lt; Berkeley DB Installed Directory&gt;/include, as well as the 
db.h and db_cxx.h header files.
